"Small beer writ large, if you don't mind me mixing my metaphors", if i remember correctly.
The tv show producers certainly singled you out as the villan of the program JJ, which is unfair, but i suppose they had a show to make and i guess you volunteered? Can i ask, did you regret taking part?
FYI, i was a student at the RCA when the shows aired (just after you left) and John Stezeaker defended your character during a lecture saying you were a really nice bloke "despite the tv show attempting to turn you in to a national hate figure". And he's great, so there you go.
On the suject of Graham Crowley's taste for the small.... the paintings i brought along for my interview were small and he liked them for it....... and then more recently, when he was a judge for the John Moore's he said he stayed away from picking anyting large, he didn't want anyting that might hang in a corporate lobby he said, which I thought that was bullshit.
I liked him though.
